“No matter how subtle the wizard, a knife between the shoulder blades will seriously cramp his style.”
Steven Brust

“Everybody generalizes from one example. At least, I do.”
Steven Brust

“The tools are real. The viewer is real, you, the artist, is real and a part of everything you paint. You connect yourself to the viewer by sharing something that is inside of you that connects with something inside of him. All you have as your guide is that you know what moves you. All you have to do it with is a brush, some chemical and canvas, and technique.”
Steven Brust
